Saif Ali Khan to release his autobiography in 2021; says, ‘So many things will be lost with time if we don’t record them’

Saif Ali Khan has experimented widely, from playing the charming and urbane man in Dil Chahta Hai and Kal Ho Naa Ho to the quirky Parsi apprentice in Being Cyrus to a gangster in Omkara to, most recently, a troubled police officer in Sacred Games. In spite of his colourful and distinguished career, he remains a private person who prefers to let his films do all the talking; the book promises to change that

Over Two Decades In Bollywood

Having spent more than two decades in the industry, Saif Ali Khan has built a formidable repertoire and starred in critically acclaimed, award-wining roles as well as in many commercial blockbusters. An actor who likes pushing the envelope, he has experimented widely, from playing the charming and urbane man in Dil Chahta Hai and Kal Ho Naa Ho to the quirky Parsi apprentice in Being Cyrus to a gangster in Omkara to, most recently, a troubled police officer in Sacred Games. In spite of his colourful and distinguished career, he remains a private person who prefers to let his films do all the talking, much like the enigmatic stars of yore.

This book is going to change that. It will be a no-holds-barred account with Saif Ali Khan, in his signature style laced with wit and humour, opening up about family, home, his successes and failures, his influences and inspirations and, of course, films. Opening up about it, Saif said, “So many things have changed and will be lost with time if we don’t record them. It would be nice to look back; to remember and to record. It has been funny and moving, and I must say, this is quite a selfish endeavour. I do hope others enjoy the book, too, of course.”
